Stubb’s Texas Sriracha Anytime Sauce Wings

Stubb’s recently came out with a line of marinades and what they call anytime sauces. Our local grocery store had them all on sale, so I grabbed two or three bottles of each and headed on home with thoughts of the many things I was going to use them in. First up? Wings of course, so I grabbed a bottle of Anytime sauce and went to work making a batch of Stubb’s Texas Sriracha wings!

Stubb's Texas Sriracha Wings

Fantastic Flavor With The Right Kick

The heat from the Texas Sriracha Anytime sauce isn’t overpowering. Great flavor and a bit of a kick. It’s what I’d call the perfect bottled sauce, and absolutely the best thing for Stubb’s Texas Sriracha wings (or grilled chicken, or steak for that matter). It makes for the perfect (kicked up) substitute for the ‘normal’ Sriracha sauce you already use.

Also try Stubb’s black pepper anytime sauce wings.

Private Selection Hatch Green Chile Crema Wing Sauce Wings

You need to stop reading this post right now and run out to Kroger and grab some Private Selection Hatch Green Chile Crema wing sauce. This is definitely one of the best bottled sauces you can find. It has the perfect yogurty creaminess. The perfect hint of Hatch chiles, a fantastic-flavored pepper that has just a hint of spiciness. Finished with a bit of lime and cilantro, I absolutely loved this sauce on wings. And I can see this sauce finding its way into other dishes. Like a southwestern macaroni-and-cheese for sure!

Private Selection Hatch Green Chile Crema Wings

This Sauce Is Great By Itself

You don’t need anything else when you serve up a batch of Private Selection Hatch Green Chile Crema wing sauce. No Ranch dressing. No blue cheese. Nothing. The sauce on the wings is perfect by itself and the last thing you want to do is dilute it with other flavors. Let it shine!

Remember that if you have to refrigerate your open bottle of wing sauce to let it sit out on the counter for at least 30 minutes before using. You don’t want to ‘shock’ hot, just-cooked wings with a cold sauce.

Noble Made Hot Buffalo Wing Sauce Wings

I was perusing the wing sauce section at our local Whole Foods when I came across a few bottles of Noble Made sauce, including their hot Buffalo wing sauce. Never one to pass up a new (to me) sauce, I grabbed a few and headed on home to make a big ole batch of wings. This sauce is good and spicy (hey, it does say ‘hot’ on the label!), has that great Buffalo wing flavor, and has the perfect consistency. And consistency is important. Too many sauces are thin and watery. You end up with 10 times as much sauce on your plate as you do on your wings. That’s not why you made wings. You want them covered in sauce, not swimming in sauce soup.

Noble Made Hot Buffalo Wings

Good And Spicy

Next time I’m at Whole Foods I won’t hesitate to grab a few more bottles of Noble Made hot Buffalo wing sauce, along with their other flavors. You can’t go wrong with it. It’s perfect for those occasions when I want a good spicy Buffalo wing sauce. It’s not for the ‘no spicy stuff for me’ crowd.

Too spicy? Try Noble Made medium Buffalo wing sauce wings!

Joey Chestnut Nashville Hot Chicken Wing Sauce Wings

When I first came across Joey Chestnut’s Nashville Hot Chicken wing sauce it was on a display at Jungle Jim’s outside of Cincinnati. The flavors all sounded intriguing and different, so I grabbed a few bottles and rushed on home to make some wings. Every sauce has been fantastic, different, and just flat-out tasty. I love Nashville hot chicken, so the idea of putting that same great kicked-up spicy flavor on wings was a must-do for me. Man, was it good!

Joey Chestnut Nashville Hot Chicken Wings

Just Like The Real Thing

Joey Chestnut’s Nashville Hot Chicken wing sauce is great all around, and not just in taste. It has the perfect consistency, the right stick-to-the-wingsness. This sauce would be great on more than wings too. Heck, drizzle it all over fried chicken and get instant Nashville hot chicken with a twist!

Remember that if you have to refrigerate your open bottle of wing sauce to let it sit out on the counter for at least 30 minutes before using. You don’t want to ‘shock’ hot, just-cooked wings with a cold sauce.

Great Value Caribbean Jerk Wing Sauce Wings

This here is proof positive that you should not poo-poo grocery store-brand wing sauces. You might want to grab that $8 bottle, but believe me you don’t have to spend that much to get a mighty good wing sauce. The Great Value Caribbean Jerk wing sauce has just the right amount of Jamaican-inspired flavors. And just the right amount of heat, too.

Great Value Caribbean Jerk Wings

A Nice Island-Inspired Wing Sauce

The Caribbean Jerk wing sauce from Great Value isn’t too thick and it isn’t too thin. Neither of those would be good things. It’ll stick to your wings but it’s not so thick as to be gloppy. I really liked the consistency. But I liked the spiciness even more. Just the right amount of allspice, something I watch out for in Jerk seasoning. Too much can be … too much!

Remember that if you have to refrigerate your open bottle of wing sauce to let it sit out on the counter for at least 30 minutes before using. You don’t want to ‘shock’ hot, just-cooked wings with a cold sauce.

Slow Cooker Buffalo Ranch Wings

I usually cook wings on my Char-Broil Big Easy or on my charcoal grill using the Vortex. I have to admit, I was pretty pessimistic about the idea of cooking wings in a slow cooker. Would I like the texture? Would they taste as great as wings off the grill?

One thing’s for sure, making Buffalo Ranch wings in a slow cooker really couldn’t get any easier. It was the perfect recipe for my working-from-home lunch. Toss everything in first thing in the morning and at lunch, enjoy some wings!

The Verdict Is In…

So how were they? Well, mighty tasty for starters. In fact, I loved the flavor. Big time. Texture-wise, they got barely crispy but the meat was oh-so-tender and juicy. For truly crispy skin you’ll have to leave them under the broiler for a good bit of time, but keep an eye on them. I found the skin to be melt-in-my-mouth tender and I didn’t actually miss not having super-crunchy wings. In fact, it was a nice change. I loved them!

Slow Cooker Buffalo Ranch Wings

They’re Easy. And Good!

Although not traditional Buffalo wings to a purist, I still enjoyed these slow cooker Buffalo Ranch wings more than I actually thought I would. No mess, no fuss and very tasty. Certainly much easier than firing up a grill or even deep fryer to make a batch of the wings you normally expect.

Bandit Wings

The best wings pack flavor into every bite, all the way through. These Bandit wings have flavor and then some. They are marinated overnight, picking up a light soy sauce flavor along with a hint of cumin and chili powder. Sort of southwestern meets Asian.

No Sauce Required

Bandit wings definitely do not require a sauce. You don’t want to hide the fantastic flavors. I did have a little blue cheese dressing on the side for dipping but I used it sparingly. Very sparingly.

Bandit Wings

Garnishes Are Optional

The original recipe called for garnishing these Bandit wings with black sesame seeds. Apparently they’re as rare as a unicorn here so I went with plain ole ‘normal’ sesame seeds. You get that bit of sesame seed flavor either way. You can order the seeds online, of course.

If you do decide to have a side sauce for dipping, I recommend these little cups. They’re the perfect size for dipping wings!

Torchbearer Pineapple Papaya BBQ Sauce Wings

When I first came across Torchbearer’s Pineapple Papaya BBQ sauce, I immediately thought chicken wings. The thought of a slightly spicy, somewhat fruity sauce on wings sounded like a brilliant idea. And it proved to be exactly that, too. I found the sauce be just a bit fruity, and bit a sweet, with a bit of heat. Exactly what I was hoping for, be it on wings or smoked ribs or grilled chicken.

Torchbearer Pineapple Papaya BBQ Wings

Fruity Sweet Heat

Don’t just grab one bottle of the sauce. The bottles aren’t particularly big, and you’ll definitely want to keep some on hand at all times!

Torchbearer Pineapple Papaya BBQ sauce is the perfect consistency, no matter what you’re going to slather it on or toss it with. You’ll find yourself licking your fingers. A lot. It’s different, and it’s delicious.

Remember that if you have to refrigerate your open bottle of wing sauce to let it sit out on the counter for at least 30 minutes before using. You don’t want to ‘shock’ hot, just-cooked wings with a cold sauce.

Quaker Steak and Lube Thai ‘R’ Cracker Wing Sauce Wings

When I can’t get to the nearest Quaker Steak & Lube (about 2 hours from here in Indy), I do the next-best-thing and make my version of their wings here. This time I used the insanely good Quaker Steak and Lube Thai ‘R’ Cracker wing sauce. It’s got a bit of kick, but not so much that you’re gonna cry. And it’s got a bit of sweet to it too. It’s perfect with a bit of cool Ranch sauce on the side. Or serve the wings with more Thai ‘R’ Cracker sauce for a more kicked-up dipping sauce.

Quaker Steak and Lube Thai 'R' Cracker Wings

Asian-Inspired Greatness

Thai ‘R’ Cracker wing sauce is by far my wife’s favorite from Quaker Steak and Lube. We always keep a number of bottles of Quaker Steak and Lube Thai ‘R’ Cracker wing sauce on hand for making delicious wings!

Great Value Medium Buffalo Wing Sauce Wings

If you’ve been looking for a great, inexpensive store-bought Buffalo wing sauce that has just the right amount of kick but isn’t too spicy, the medium Buffalo wing sauce from Great Value (WalMart) is definitely the sauce for you. And me. Because I absolutely loved it. I decided to take a little break from hot wing sauces. This medium sauce definitely still satisfied my Buffalo wing craving without burning my mouth. It’s just barely spicy, and definitely very flavorful. Not overly vinegary. And the perfect consistency. I was really, really happy with it. This sauce is proof that you don’t have to spend a lot of money on a store sauce to get a good product.

Great Buffalo Flavor without all the Heat

The Great Value mild wing sauce is also great, perfect for wings for a crowd without having to worry about it being too spicy. I’d serve these alongside some hotter wings and let people choose their heat level.
